Cynthia Thomason

Biography

Before becoming a writer - well, actually I've ALWAYS been a writer in one form or another. Before I became a "published writer," I was a high school English teacher. At that time, most of my writing was marking comments on students' papers. I loved teaching, but wanted to spread my wings a bit, so I became a professional auctioneer. My husband and I owned an auction company in Florida where I involved myself in studying artifacts, collectibles, antique furniture, etc. I used many of my discoveries in my writing. I have so far published twenty books with three publishers, romance and mystery. Now I write full-time, travel in my travel trailer with my husband and our adorable silky terrier. My son, of whom I am very proud, is also a writer. I love to hear from readers and spend way too much time on Facebook.

Combining humor and suspense, Stagestruck follows the adventures of Gwen Barlow, her mother and brother, when they inherit the Jubilee Showboat floating palace. Murder on the Beach Bookstore calls this "a delightful read with plot twists to keep the reader turning pages."
